The operative word in sub-para A is "and." See Section 512(C)(2). Most of these hosts don't have a registered agent, making them ineligible for safe harbor anyway. Not that it matters, as hosts like Oron don't qualify anyway because of 512(C)(1)(b): they directly benefit financially from the infringing activity, and by paying a bounty to the uploader encourage the infringing activity.
when you use the term "hosts", are you referring legally to the actual server location, or are you referring to an entity hosting, ie. any website?
